Ingredients

  • 1 carrot large, peeled and shredded
  • 2 tablespoons rice vinegar
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 pound shrimp raw, tails and shell removed
  • 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
  • 1 cucumber large, cut into thin ribbons (the cucumber does not need to be peeled)
  • 2 tablespoons clean mayonnaise
  • 2 tablespoons Greek yogurt plain
  • 1 teaspoon soy sauce low-sodium
  • 1 tablespoon lime juice
  • 1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper
  • 4 whole-wheat baguette buns halved lengthwise (6 inch)
  • 1/3 cup cilantro fresh, chopped

Instructions

  • In a small bowl, combine the carrot and vinegar. Set aside.
  • In a large skillet, heat the olive oil. Once hot add the shrimp and season with salt and pepper. Once pink and firm, remove from the heat and cool completely.
  • Combine the cucumber, mayonnaise, yogurt, soy sauce, lime juice, and red pepper in a large mixing bowl. Drain the carrots and add to the mixture, discarding the vinegar. Stir in the cooked and cooled shrimp. Place the mixture inside the baguettes and top with the cilantro. Serve and enjoy.
